I really enjoyed this. I really liked Frazer's treatment of Dara's weight. It rang true for me and I found her easy to relate to, whereas a lot of big girl YA characters are just like “I EAT MY FEEEELINGS” or whatever. Dara was more, like, regular. In retrospect, the long-lost-sister and utopian goat farm are kind of implausible, but I never really questioned it while I was reading it. It was a fun read and it all seemed to make sense. I liked the little mystery element, too. A good, fun read.
